Inspired by our founder Tim Oulton's beloved A-frame glass
acrylic desk used in his family home in France, reinterpreted in
one of our favourite materials - reclaimed timber. Lending a strong
architectural presence with its crisp angles, the A-Frame oak
dining table is handcrafted from century-old oak and constructed by
hand with durable mortise and tenon joints. The timber has an
authentically distressed patina, rife with the character that only
weathering and age can bring. The humble trestle table shape has a
rich history of use from schools to science labs to decorating
tables to banqueting tables, with its simplicity of design enduring
through the years.
“I’ve always loved reclaimed wood, it has an honesty and a purity. Old wood is seasoned; the colour’s better, it feels better, it just looks more natural.”
Tim Oulton
Steeped in character
Reclaimed Oak
Our solid reclaimed oak repurposes all the different structural
parts of the original building - from beams to floorboards to
trusses. Its provenance is lovingly preserved in the dowels, holes,
nail heads, cracks, and splits present in the wood - which all
speak of its storied past. Small cracks and fissures will continue
to appear over time, a hallmark of reclaimed timber that further
adds to its character.
Great experience here, the staff were super super helpful.
